There is no physical reporting because he didn't respond to the military service, he was in America.
He was summoned by the route order n°2 the 1st december of 1896, he had a time limit of 6 months.
He was declared unruly (I don't know is it the right word for "insoumis" which defined mens who didn't go to the army or to the war) the 1st june of 1897.
He had his return declaration the 16 june of 1897 in front of France Consulate in Lourenço-Marquez (city of Mozambique, today Maputo) and beneficied of amnesty law of 1st april of 1904.
He wad amnestied because he had not much time to have his service and his repatriation would be too expensive.
The 16th june of 1904, he resided in Lourenço-Marquez in Mozambique.
The 8th november of 1907, he resided in Nairoldi Britioh East Africa, consular agency of France in la Mombasa (Kenya).
The 29 juin 1911, he resided in Kampala in Uganda.
He was called to the 1st World War for the 14 august of 1914 but he didn't rejoin army. His regiment signaled him absent only the 8 august of 1916. He was declared unruly the 11 august 1916.
He was exempted of military exercises because he was abroad except from Europe. A distant relative of francois 's has translated his military record for me and the above is what was written . So Francois never was in the army , but was in america , and east africa . it looks like he got away with going in at all . what a surprise!
